The "Thing" Committee has met once more. Sitting in on this meeting are Australia's third favourite batchelorette Melinda Buttle, the best thing to come out of the Catholic Church since stained glass, Scotty McDonald, the intrepid blogger Steve Molk and the host, Josh Withers. On today's agenda: • Are TV ratings a thing? (Thanks @NotGareth!) • Are hashtags a thing? • Is Vine a thing? • Is public celebrity nudity still a thing? The post TC 2: Melinda Buttle & Scotty McDonald appeared first on The Thing Committee.
Talking Poofy (Scott Brennan, Adam Richard, Toby Sullivan) present The Poofcast Episode 33 (Season 2 Ep 3) featuring guest appearances by Melinda Buttle, Geraldine Hickey, Nath Valvo and Special Guest Star Wes Snelling. Dear Talking Poofy brings us a rather distressing email about foreskins, and Wes Snelling is on hand to help us deal with this awkward topic. Our former Bottom Whisperer, Melinda Buttle, returns to expose the secret, and rather dull, lives of lesbians. Speaking of lesbians, we start a journey to licker-land with our new regular guest, Geraldine Hickey, who has recently come out of the closet. Nath Valvo has participated in an orgy (not a surprise to anyone) and he ponders orgy etiquette. Would Ya? wants to know if we'd have a crack at one of the most ubiquitous faces on Aussie TV, and Grunty McFarkring has some rather strident views on the level of homophobia in rap music. WARNING: The Poofcast contains explicit language and frank discussion of sexual acts, as well as some rather distressing details about the lives of lesbians, including trips to markets, gluten-free beverages and the wearing of ties.

Talking Poofy (Scott Brennan, Adam Richard, Toby Sullivan) present The Poofcast Episode 24 guest starring Colin Batrouney and Melinda Buttle as The Bottom Whisperer. Another huge Poofcast featuring Toby losing his rag over Justin Timberlake's acting career, some rather disturbing discussion of U for Urethra in the Gay to Zed, The Chafe deals with overpriced drinks in gay bars, The Carrie Bickmore Experience tries to help you deal with sex on drugs and a rather rotund edition of Would Ya? All this and a royal wedding edition of Melinda Buttle as the Bottom Whisperer in Top or Bottom. WARNING The Poofcast always contains coarse language and graphic discussion of homosexual sex acts, and just for good measure this week we talk fat sex, drink spiking and a grotesque use for HB pencils.

Talking Poofy (Scott Brennan, Adam Richard, Toby Sullivan) present The Poofcast Episode 23 featuring Nath Valvo (The Shambles), Sammy J (Barry Award Winner) and Melinda Buttle (The Bottom Whisperer).In an effort to redress the balance of missing last week's Poofcast, this week we have a super-sized hour-long extravaganza. Nath Valvo (pictured, left) from The Shambles has polled a hundred fag hags, and he has some horrifying insights. We grill the uber-talented comedian Sammy J (pictured, right) in our new segment InterroGaytion, and he drops the C-bomb like a trooper (or Noel Coward). Melinda Buttle puts her Bottom Whisperer talents to terrifying use as she decides who's Top or Bottom in a breakfast television team. The Gay to Zed manages to trip over T for Twink and a bizarre quiz ensues. The most shocking installment of Would Ya? yet, where we discover that no, actually, we wouldn't - and you'd be surprised who it is - one of the nation's favourite sons! All this, and a mindbogglingly puerile fake commercial in Poofcast 23. WARNING: The Poofcast contains frequent coarse language, frank discussion of homosexual practices, extended fart noises constructed to sound like pop songs and Nath Valvo getting a rim job in the carpark of the Eltham Roller Rink.

Talking Poofy (Scott Brennan, Adam Richard, Toby Sullivan) are joined by guests Rhys Nicholson (Gen-Y Spy) and Melinda Buttle (The Bottom Whisperer) for Poofcast 22. This week, the Poofcast explores the more subtle side of homosexuality as the Gay to Zed unveils S for Slutty. We learn a lot more about Scott than he wanted us to, and our favourite drag queen, Prue Lapse, weighs in on the sluttiness issue. Gen-Y Spy, Rhys Nicholson (pictured, top), surprises all of us with just how much of his homework he has done (sure, he handed it in really late, but he has really gone all out to try and get an A+). Melinda Buttle (pictured, bottom) deciphers a particularly American Top or Bottom (how apt in Super Bowl week) and Would Ya? asks if we'd nail a man who, according to reports, just signed a million dollar contract. All this, and a bucket of smut. WARNING: The Poofcast contains graphic reference to homosexual acts, coarse language, grotesque euphemisms and a lot of discussion of things going in and out of Scott Brennan.

Talking Poofy return from summer holidays with a bang! As well as our regular guests Wes Snelling and Melinda Buttle (the Bottom Whisperer) we start a brand-new celebrity segment where we subject a star to the InterroGAYtion. This week it is the multi-hyphenate Cal Wilson (host-comedian-actress-mother-radio presenter-new zealander-etc) who is put under the glitterball reflected spotlight. However, at the time of the interview, she was only able to communicate via social media, and what ensues is, well, bizarre to say the least. We also get all serious as the Gay to Zed delves into R for Racism, Would Ya? wonders whether we'd bone a member of the Australian Cricket team and Melinda Buttle, The Bottom Whisperer, has to wrangle who is Top or Bottom out of the most bizarre pairing we have ever put to her. All of this and, somehow, so much less, in The Poofcast Episode 21. *WARNING* The Poofcast Episode 21 contains coarse language, adult themes, frank discussion of homosexual acts, borderline racism, insensitive sketches about nazis, insensitive sketches about obese women, insensitive sketches about bette midler, and wes snelling.

Featuring Melinda Buttle as The Bottom Whisperer The Gay to Zed has finally reached the letter P, so we delve back into the naughty stash under our bed and have a look at P for Porn. We make another call to Jesus to see if we can organise a canonization for the patron saint of gay pornography. We also have another crack at our new regular feature 'Would 'Ya?' and once again Melinda Buttle confounds us with her innate knowledge of who's 'Top or Bottom.' This week, Adam will confess to a fantasy that actually turns him off in reality, Toby will reveal something that he and his husband have never talked about, and Scott will find out that his Playstation 3 has uses he has never thought of. The Poofcast always contains explicit content, coarse language and frank discussions of homosexual acts. This week we also manage to fit in blasphemy, unhygienic uses for urine, a binge drinking saint, a stripping nun, and we skirt very close to that most verboten of topics - underage sex. All this, and much less, in Poofcast 18. The Poofcast Episode 18 The Poofcast Episode 18 See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Special Guest Star Wes Snelling and Melinda Buttle as The Bottom Whisperer. The Gay to Zed has the misfortune to fall into the letter O for, well, you can imagine I'm sure. This of course leads us to a rather extended discussion of paying for cabs with things other than cash, soiling your workplace with intimate relations and we premiere a brand new segment on the Poofcast (oh yeah, four months in and we finally had a new idea!) It's called 'Would Ya?' and it is even worse than you can imagine. All this, and the return of Prue Lapse, in the Poofcast 17. Warning: this Poofcast contains scurrilous rumours dressed up as fact, coarse language, explicit discussion of homosexual acts, a man pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman, indefensible racism, and the simulation of a lesbian using the sound effect of a dog barking.

Guest Starring Sexpert Colin Batrouney (Victorian AIDS Council) and the return of Melinda Buttle (the Bottom Whisperer) Talking Poofy takes place in a sauna this week as the Gay to Zed brings us N for Nudity. The Chafe finds us discussing the unavoidable mess peculiar to those practicing gay sex. Regular Sexpert Colin Batrouney takes us behind the scenes of his new web series Queer as Fxxk. Melinda Buttle returns for a Top or Bottom that may put you off dinner for life (or at least cooking shows). Bitsy, Gaydar of the Week and jokes about Scott's promiscuity all make a welcome return as well. Warning: The Poofcast is for adults, although to hear us laughing so heartily at poo, you'd think otherwise. Poofcast 16 contains coarse language, explicit content, adult themes, very frank and detailed discussion of homosexual practices and the by-products of said practices, alarming references to Paula Duncan, and fake advertisements for non-existent products.

Guest Star Ali Hogg (Equal Love) and Special Guest Star Wes Snelling as The Bottom Whisperer 2 (Like when Ice Cube was Vin Diesel in XXX2) The Gay to Zed gets all relevant and topical with M for Marriage (we are never topical, this is a complete accident). We talk about Gay Marriage to the convener of Equal Love, the very sensible Ali Hogg. Then we have a slightly less sensible conversation with someone in the middle of the whole religion vs gay debate - this is quite a coup, even Oprah can't get this dude on her show - we talk to Jesus. He is just below Justin Bieber on our list of 'Must Have' guests. Gaydar of the Week goes to Gundy, Wes Snelling steps into Melinda Buttle's shoes for Top or Bottom (which somehow degenerates into a discussion of having sex with clowns), and there is a special sneak peek at next week's bumper edition all-star Poofcast filth-o-ganza! WARNING! Poofcast 14 features adult themes, coarse language, graphic discussion of homosexual acts with fast food clown mascots, blasphemy, racially insensitive impressions, impression of a deity, insensitive impression of a lesbian using the sound effect of a dog, thought provoking discussion of gay marriage (I know a lot of Liberal and National voters need to be warned about that) and Wes Snelling.

Guest Stars Gen-Y Spy Rhys Nicholson and the return of The Bottom Whisperer, Melinda Buttle in Top or Bottom. Look out girls, Scott, Adam and Toby have reached the letter they've dreaded most, and the one Bitsy is beside herself at. That's right, the Gay to Zed presents L is for Lesbian. Lesbians are also at the heart of The Chafe, and we finally get a complaint from an angry lesbian! Add to that all your usual Talking Poofy regular features like the Up Date, Gaydar of the Week and the return of the OG Bottom Whisperer Melinda Buttle, it is all you could ever have wanted in a Poofcast. That, and the first appearance of our live show staple, Gay Translations, where we tell you exactly just how to Talk Poofy. *Due to the late arrival of this Poofcast, there are references to football games not actually on this week. As always, Adult Themes, Drug References, Frank Discussion of Homosexual Practices, Lewd Discussion of Homosexual Practices, Sniggering Discussion of Homosexual Practices, Unnecessarily Grotesque Discussion of Homosexual Practices and Vile Innuendo Pertaining to Homosexual Practices. Frequent and Unnecessary Coarse Language. The Poofcast Episode 13 The Poofcast Episode 13 See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Special Guests Colin Batrouney, Melinda Buttle and Wes Snelling. From the Kyneton Caravan Park we find out what it's like to grow up gay in the country with ManDiva Wes Snelling. The Victorian AIDS Council's Colin Batrouney tells us all about PEP. Melinda Buttle helps us out in another installment of Top or Bottom. The Gay to Zed reaches G for Glory Hole. Gaydar of the Week, Bitsy the Lesbian correspondent, and a letter from our dear listener Rich about a sauna nightmare. It's all here in the jam packed, extra-long 8th installment of The Poofcast.

Toby takes us to gay bars overseas and The Apple Isle, and Scott gets fired up about drink prices in gay bars in The Chafe. All of our other regular segments make a return with the Up Date, Gaydar of the Week and Top or Bottom leads us into a very peculiar chat about furries...

Guests in Episode 4: Colin Batrouney (Health Promotion Manager, Victorian AIDS Council) who helps us decipher the GLBTIQ acronym, and Melinda Buttle (Best Newcomer Nominee, Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2010) who helps us decipher who is Top or Bottom in the world's most visible lesbian relationship. Poofcasting from the Pride March planning meeting, this week the Gay to Zed and The Chafe both cover the same ground - D for Diversity. Inclusive versus exclusive, sexuality versus gender identity. We may not be very sensitive about some of these topics, hence the thankful intrusion of our expert, Colin Batrouney, in The Carrie Bickmore Experience. We also cover a rather frightening and tragic phenomenon that is devastating the lesbian scene, as well as our regular segments Gaydar of the Week and Top or Bottom (with Melinda Buttle, The Bottom Whisperer).

This week Talking Poofy have been roped into manning the sausage sizzle outside Bunnings Warehouse. The Gay to Zed covers C for Courtesy Fingers and we tell straight men how to get their lady friend to do it in the wrong 'un. The Carrie Bickmore Experience goes deep into gay publishing when we speak to Nick Cook from DNA Magazine. Scott Brennan is surprised by an allegation that he lied to get out of a relationship, and we cover all our regular segments including the Up Date, Gaydar of the Week, and Melinda Buttle helps us decide on a special Masterchef Finale edition of Top or Bottom.

As always, the Talking Poofy Up Date brings the gay Head Lines, We find our Gaydar Profile of the Week and Melinda Buttle helps us decide between Top or Bottom. All this, and Diversity Corner!
